Setlist & Info | Venue

//Bruce at the First Presbyterian Church, Freehold. This shot is probably the earliest known image showing Springsteen playing a Fender Telecaster guitar. His iconic Esquire guitar utilises a Telecaster body attached to an Esquire neck and was purchased in 1972. Bruce said later that he wanted a Telecaster because he used one when he was younger - he was probably referring to this guitar.//

//With Vinnie Manniello (drums) and Paul Popkin (maracas). Popkin may be wearing a poppy on his right lapel, perhaps as a tribute to Castiles bandmate Bart Haynes who was killed in action in Vietnam on October 22, 1967.//
